Why we built this wall
Fintech Wall of Shame brings together people’s reports of frozen accounts, held money and sudden closures at Revolut, Mercury, Wise, Stripe and PayPal. Each call out links to its original sources so you can read what the person actually reported.
A lone complaint can disappear into a feed. We built this wall to keep these experiences visible, make them easier to share and reveal recurring problems. We want people’s stories to reach a wider audience and put pressure on providers to respond and fix problems.
We track updates, company responses and documented resolutions. Visibility cannot guarantee a solution, but it gives a complaint a place where others can find it and follow what happens next. We distinguish what someone reports from what the evidence establishes, and correct the record when new information arrives.
This is an independent project. It does not represent the named providers, a regulator, or a fund-recovery service. Provider names and logos identify the companies discussed.
The Fintech Wall of Shame editorial team maintains this project. Read how we select complaints, count reported money and handle corrections.
